The Best Cardio Workouts!

by Audrina Darling

One of the most commonly asked questions that I receive from new clients is, "What is the most effective cardio workout I can do?" There are so many factors that play into the equation such as heart rate control and fitness level. However, if I had to name the two types of cardio activity by which I've seen the most clients reach their goal weight levels, they would be kickboxing and spinning.

Cardio Kickboxing

So many muscles are utilized in a one hour cardio kickboxing class. In fact, you'll discover soreness in muscles that you didn't know you had after attending a good cardio kickboxing class!

Spinning

When spinning was introduced over a decade ago, it quickly became one of the most popular classes offered by health clubs internationally. Today, it maintains its status as one of the most effective, fun, and energizing workouts in existence. One of the main reasons for its effectiveness is the fact that heart rate monitors are so strongly emphasized. With heart rate monitors, participants are sure to stay in their fat burning zones optimizing their results. Another reason for the impressive following the world has seen in spinning is the unique flexibility extended to instructors when it comes to visual and audio affects including projection screens, hand-picked playlists, and more.

Later this week, I'll be posting a detailed look into spinning classes, why they're so healthy and what you can expect on your first visit.
